Your body will become more toned and your muscularity better defined.

Quickness and reaction time will improve.

You will develop a better mental attitude and be less prone to depression.

But what is most important you will realize that your body is capable of so much more. Obviously, the martial arts may not be suitable for some, but if you are already somewhat physical and leery of pharmacology as the cure for pain and depression, then, perhaps, the martial arts are for you.
